Huo Yuxin won the title of Wu Zhuangyuan and was appointed to the Imperial Guard. The man who challenged him was Ma Datao, a man of the underworld. He had done a poor job in the previous military strategy test, so he only ranked 38th.
Originally, this was just a small episode and it would have been over. After all, even warriors have brains and those who rush around recklessly are a minority.
But Yan Shiyue didn't expect that he would see this person again afterwards.
After Huo Yuchu came of age, she was engaged. Her husband was Xu Jingxi, the grandson of the now retired Prime Minister Xu, who had won the third place in the imperial examination and had just passed the age of twenty.
She chose it herself.
Huo Yuchu likes reading, and Xu Jingxi is good at poetry and prose. After the Xu family came to propose marriage, she first read the poems and prose, then looked at the person... and then agreed.
Xu Jingxi is indeed a good-looking boy. If he weren't good-looking, he wouldn't have been able to become the third place in the imperial examination. However, he is good-looking like Meng Er and Xiao Tangzhi, and even more bookish than them.
Yan Shiyue's view of his daughter has always been difficult to describe.
But no matter what, the Xu family has already arranged the wedding date, which is set for October this year, so Yan Shiyue often accompanies his daughter to buy things.
Although Huo Yuchu's demeanor is usually very similar to that of Lin Daiyu, when it comes to shopping for jewelry and clothes, she can shop for three hours without stopping. Perhaps real women are all very special creatures like this...
...
...
The two people walked from the beginning to the end of the street, then bought two boxes of ice cream from the roadside and prepared to go to the teahouse next to them to take a rest.
Yes, there is ice cream on the streets of Chang’an now. There are various fruit and chocolate flavors. They are served in small porcelain bowls or glass bowls. When you open the lid, a puff of cool air rushes out, and you eat it with a small porcelain spoon, which is very elegant.
As the two were walking towards the teahouse, a man jumped out, pointed at her and asked, "Are you Huo Yuxin's mother?"
Yan Shiyue raised her eyebrows.
She didn't believe that this person didn't know who she was. If he was so stupid, he wouldn't have lived to this age.
The Dragon Guards had already stood in front of her, and Ma Datao pretended not to see them. He stared at her with his eyes wide open and said, "I want to challenge you!"
Yan Shiyue chuckled.
To be honest, Yan Shiyue has a thousand words to say back to this kind of idiot.
Why the hell don't you challenge a three-year-old kid? Isn't that a sure win?
Or you don't even need to bother fighting, just call out the Dragon Guards to beat him up so badly that his mother won't even recognize him, and there's no point in calling the police.
However, as a loving mother who values opportunity education, she has long since handed over the right to handle most matters to her children.
At this moment, beside her was Huo Yuchu, who carried eight hundred kilograms of ladylike baggage... and she never took the route of bullying others by taking advantage of her power, and was always dedicated to creating a completely kind and virtuous persona.
Yan Shiyue took a step back and gave the stage to her daughter.
Huo Yuchu also stepped forward and explained gently: "Sir, if you want to find someone to spar with, you can find a fellow student in the martial arts exam, or a familiar friend..."
Ma Datao said: "I don't need you to teach me how to do things! I just want to challenge her!"
Huo Yuchu added: "My mother is a woman. Even if you beat her, it's not a fair victory. If you really want to fight, you can go find my brother..."
Ma Datao sneered at the sky: "So what! Huo Yuxin was able to become the top martial arts champion because of her influence? So why should I waste time on Huo Yuxin? I will directly destroy his support! Let's see how arrogant he can be!"
Idiot, pure.
Yan Shiyue was eating ice cream in the back and laughed out loud when she heard this.
Especially when looking at her daughter, it's even funnier.
My girl, not everyone can understand what people say.
The usual welcoming and seeing off of people is very normal. It is very rare to meet such an idiot. This opportunity for education is really rare.
As Ma Datao began to swear, Huo Yuchu's voice finally became a little angry.
As a result, before she lost her temper, Ma Datao became furious and almost pointed his finger at her nose: "Get out of my way! Otherwise, I will beat you too!"
Huo Yuchu was silent for a while, lowered his eyes to look at the finger pointing at him, and then said gently: "Wait a moment."
She put away the beautiful and exquisite little flower umbrella in her hand and gave it to the maid, then put down the small fragrant wooden fan in her sleeve, then pulled her sleeves and tucked them into her cuffs, bent down, spread her hands, and tore the hem of her skirt open with a "hissing" sound.
Then she looked around, walked towards the alley, stood at the entrance, and said to him very politely: "Please come over here!"
Ma Datao was confused by her and glared at her, "What are you doing?" He didn't know what pornographic trash he was thinking of, so he walked over and said, "I didn't expect you ladies to be so shameless... Puuuuuuuuu..."
Huo Yuchu kicked him and made him fall sideways, and he successfully fell into the alley.
Then Huo Yuchu maintained her graceful posture, with her two little feet flying around, kicking him in the head and face.
Because she caught him off guard, Ma Datao was completely overwhelmed by her. He fell down as soon as he attacked her, and fell down as soon as he attacked her... He couldn't even say a word of criticism!
Huo Yuchu kicked him like a pig, then apologized politely: "Sorry! Please don't do this again in the future."
She straightened her clothes, and with two clicks, she stepped on his leg bones and broke them again. Ma Datao screamed, kicked his feet and fainted.
Then Huo Yuchu tapped his acupuncture points with his foot, waking him up again, and said kindly, "Because I think someone like you is not suitable for being an official, nor for joining the army, so I stepped on your leg and broke it. Please don't mind."
She withdrew her hand, straightened her clothes and hair, and said, "Please don't show up again in the future, or else it will be the Shadow Guard who will attack you."
She turned and walked out.
Over there, Yan Shiyue had just finished a bowl of chocolate ice cream.
She was not surprised by this result at all.
You know, Jiaozi and Nian Gao started learning martial arts at the same time. Although Huo Yuchu's kung fu was all taught by Huo Qijing, and he is not as erudite or hardworking as his brother, he is still better than her who fishes for three days and rests for two days.
Even she could handle this idiot, let alone Huo Yuchu.
Yan Shiyue asked with a smile: "Baby, what do you think?"
Huo Yuchu lowered his head, his face full of heartache: "This dress of mine cost more than 160 taels. I really like it, but it was ruined by such a person. It's really not worth it."
The mother and daughter walked out while talking, and then Yan Shiyue calmly gestured to a hidden place.
She still couldn't believe that someone could be so stupid...
At this moment, in front of a window not far away, the young man slowly supported his chin with his hand, turned his head silently, and looked at the person next to him.
The man was dressed in a brocade robe and had an extremely handsome appearance. Who else could it be but Xu Jingxi?
The young man murmured, "Brother...my sister-in-law is so cruel!!"
Xu Jingxi didn't say anything.
He never expected to see such an unexpected scene today.
When the two of them got married, it was Old Madam Xu who first took a liking to Huo Yuchu and then proposed marriage on his behalf.
As the eldest grandson of the family, Xu Jingxi understood the family situation very well. After his grandfather retired, his father and his second and third uncles did not hold high official positions. They needed the help of their in-laws, and among them, Prince Rong's Mansion was an extremely good choice.
Therefore, although Old Madam Xu really liked Huo Yuchu, she also considered it half for the sake of the family.
On the one hand, the Xu family was sincere, and on the other hand, it might also be because the prince Rong's mansion finally agreed.
Therefore, he tried his best in this subject and won the third place in the Jinshi examination. He also got good rankings in the trade examination and the military examination. The cool title of "Yuan Shangyuan" was barely worthy of her.
He had met Huo Yuchu before and after the engagement.
Huo Yuchu grew up with Emperor Ming Yan and Meng Hui. Despite his young age, he had a graceful demeanor and was proficient in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. His handwriting was particularly beautiful. He was truly excellent and impeccable.
Plus her family background, it's true that a daughter from one family is sought after by hundreds of families.
He knew in his heart that this was his best choice, and he was determined to treat her well all his life, but... young people always have some admiration for young girls, and he always felt that this fiancée was a little fake, not really fake, but just a little unpopular.
However, Xu Jingxi never expected that his fiancée, who looked like a beautiful woman, could do this! This reversal was simply too exciting!
There was a gleam in Xu Jingxi's eyes.
He was extremely glad that he came here today, otherwise he would have missed this scene. He didn't know when he would have realized that his wife was so interesting!
Just at this moment, someone passed by below and saw Ma Datao who was beaten like a dog. After a struggle, the man asked people to carry him away.
Xu Jingxi turned around and ordered, "Keep an eye on him!"
